Michael Liberzon is a Toronto-based triathlon coach, bike fitter and aero tester, and host of the Endurance Innovation podcast. In this episode Michael explains what gains can be made by upgrading from a road bike to a Time Trial bike, and how things like the type of course and terrain can impact your choice of bike.  IN THIS EPISODE YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT:

-Expected time gains for a TT bike vs. a road bike over sprint, Olympic, half and full distance races on relatively flat courses. 

-Is there a point where a course is so hilly that it makes sense to race on a road bike? 

-When might it make sense to simply put extensions on a road bike rather than purchasing an entirely new bike?

-At what speed does it make sense to get out of the aerobars and sit up when climbing? 

-Other considerations for racing on hilly courses like disc wheel and hydration setup
